Beginnings of my Pony Art

I painted the first one for my sister when it was her birthday, and I'd never drawn pony art before. The second picture I drew a couple of days ago, and I've had virtually no practice inbetween.

 

I only used references for Rainbow Dash's flank and for Pinkie in the first one, so the poses might be a bit off. Once I get the hang on FiM style, I might try incorporating my own style more into my pony fan art.

 

Any comments and critique would be appreciated. ;)

 

I'm always sad at how the scanner washes out all the colour. I wish it looked as good online as in real life. Dumb weak colours. :(

Wow those are pretty amazing for your first ones! I think your well on your way to becoming quite a wonderful artist! And that was also a nice gift to give your sister :) Not to mention the improvement between the two with like no practice is quite astonishing!

 

Great job! Keep up the good work!

These are awesome! The first one is magnificent, especially for a first. Then the 2nd one is pretty awesome as well. I dunno something looks off about the eyes, in the 2nd one though.

 

Thank you :blush:

 

I did wonder if Fluttershy's eye was in the wrong place, but I drew her at an angle I'm not used to so I just left it! Whoops :P

Thank you so much ~

I just did an art trade with her today actually, I drew Applebloom for her and she gave me a drawing of Angel.

This was my part of the trade:

I love art trades. :D I'd like to go in the Art Swap thread but I don't have an OC :(

Very good! You are very talented. I like your art style. Its ok to use references as long as you don't trace, which I don't believe you did. These are very good, keep it up :)

 

Me too, references are good for getting the hang of a particular style. I think I need to reference more, I hardly referenced anything and most of my poses are quite boring as a result. I think I should practice more interesting poses...

 

Also I love your sig! 20% cooler :wub:

These are very good, you should definitly keep drawing(and painting). And it is impressive that you managed to make them so good with barely any reference at all :)

I like to do requests. Please, if there is something you want to see me, an amateur, draw for you, just send me a PM with the details and I'll say yay or nay. Most likely yay.

They're pretty adorable :P

Great skill for a first timer, I was drawing stick ponies first but I've improved since, and you will over time, too :) I like the shading in the mane and tail a lot if i say so myself.

If it bothers you, then you should bring the color back in an editing tool. It's an extremely uninvolved process.

 

 

Reduced brightness, increased saturation, and sharpened image in GIMP.

Wow thats great for begging art! Is there a certain way to draw ponies or a way that you used? Like a cheat sheet for drawing ponies? Lol that sounds cheap I know, but I cant seem to draw well at all

Awwww thank you very much! :D Whilst I use online tutorials for things like fabric (ugh I find drawing fabric so hard) and hands, when I draw MLP I literally just put on some episodes and go for it. I just draw what I see. Just practice will make perfect <3

 

I also started this today:

It's for my sister again. I draw so much stuff for her. I think I just love getting requests. I'm going to colour the rest of it later, maybe tomorrow because I have to work now. :(
